He has had a long long career in the public sector and anyone with 10 minutes can check out how he has moved along the line of progress.. how he has evolved so to speak... its not something we have to guess at.. we can see it... its there..

That long experience is going to be so essential to getting our government set back up and re-shored with our allies

(22,875 posts)I know.. many of them are my friends in RL.. If I had to put a bet on it... the ticket will be Biden and Harris or Buttigieg... Because people are looking beyond Biden to 2024 and 2028 and want that younger pol in place to take over.. we have a mess on our hands and we are going to need years to clean up from this nightmare

(17,984 posts)I like the idea of a Biden/ Harris team. Joe is experienced and so is Kamala. Think they would make a really good team.

The most reliable voters African American women have little affection for Sanders, nor have they automatically gravitated to African American candidates to the left of Biden. They know Biden, they like him and so far they are content to reward him with their support after his eight years of service in the Obama administration.
The lack of appeal among African American candidates is now a significant problem for Sanders and for other progressives such as Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg. (The latest Quinnipiac poll found, Biden had the support of 42 percent of nonwhite respondents, more than 30 points ahead of his nearest rival, Warren. Sanders, who struggled with nonwhite voters during his 2016 campaign, had only 7 percent support.)
In short, in going far to the left, Sanders and other candidates misfired not only with older, more moderate whites but also with the critical African American electorate. The media likewise has overestimated the influence of the far left and failed to appreciate the centrist bent of both white and African American voters.
